B836 high point-Dun Mor W Top-Dun Mor-Stuchdan Capuill-Coraddie-Beinn Bhreac-Creag nam Fitheach-B836 hp. Hot with clegs. Had intended on continuing to Sgian Dubh before heading back north, but was pushed for time to get the early bus back and didn't fancy rushing in the heat. | campagvelocet | 18/07/2022 |

Bogfest. Arduous would be a gross understatement. Good road up to reservoir at NS037747, then up L to rusty gate, from where ATV track leads up to edge of rough morass at about NS039748 then the easiest line over trackless rough, leads to Meallan Riabhach. Squelch on to Beinn Bhreac, bits of ATV track help. Not many hags, but much, much, bog to Coraddie and on to Stuchdan Capuill. Noting reports of bogs, tried to follow high ground via Cnoc Breamanach and Toman Dubh, but very complex terrain with much in-out and up-down. Big ATV track keeps to W side of this ridge, but fades in and out in the very tough vegetation. Nasty hidden leg breaker hole near bottom. Disappears near bottom in pasture land – would be hard to find going up from Ardentraive Farm. Glad to be off this horrendous hill. | Isbjorn | 15/10/2020 |

From Colintraive. Up track (NS 03469 74483) leading to covered reservoir, then through gate (up to left) and to the ridge south of the top. | Alan Moore | 11/04/2018 |

Set off from Colintraive. | ger | 04/05/2017 |
On way to Coraddie. | NormanW | 25/03/2017 |
Up from Colintraive, track to farm then across to line of new hydro scheme up along the Milton Burn. Easy access therefore to 170m, then across the burn at intake point and easy grass slopes angling direct to the summit. There in just over the hour. Then along the summit ridge to trig on Beinn Bhreac before steeply down aiming to water works and service road at 70m. Alternate way up if avoiding the hydro scheme is preferred. | nordicstar | 03/06/2016 |
Steady ascent from Colintraive. Trig by fence at top. Later found out that this had become an ex-Marilyn and that Coraddie had been promoted. | Aye Jimmy | 11/09/2009 |
Memorial walk. Colintraive- reservoir - N side of Creag Dhubh - trig - Coraddie - descended from point 487m. | chrisbien | 13/04/2008 |
Dry, cool, sunny spells, good views, with T & J. | iangalbraith | 28/05/2007 |

Parked by village hall. On concrete zig zag road to reservoir and steadily uphill to visible horizon and a long mile to trig. to Coraddie. | arranc | 21/03/2003 |
Left car at ferry . Followed Allt na Croiche to trig. The 507 spot height could not be found on the ground. As spot height is outside 500m contour maybe erroneous. However Coraddie appears higher on map | garyhoney | 16/07/2000 |
